Between II and O'Clock this morning
I'm alarm Of fire was turned in from sta

was totally DESTROYED. Ii was owned by
Dan Walthour (colored) }. and was partly
Insured IN Wheaton's agency. pne origin
of the fire is unknown, but Is supposed tc
be the work OF incendiaries. Neither OF
the tenements were occupied, the tenants
having moved out the day previous.
The two-story tenement west of Wal
Dkhour's houses was partly damaged. IL

ders were blown across Burroughs street.
Tine houses TO the eastward caught sew

extinguished without much damage.
The location OF the Gre made IT very
difficult for the Are apparatus TO got to it,
On account OF the heavy sand. The sec

FOG ARTY'S WHEREABOUTS.
That is What the Detectives Would
Like to Know.

That is What the Detectives Would
Like to Know.
Mr.. Z. j. Kieffer, who was shot March
by Thomas Fogarty, is getting along
very nicely and his rapid recovery is
looked for. The impression has become
general that Fogarty is no longer in the
city. The police and the detectives get
any number of clues, but they always
work out the same way, and when the
searchers get to the end of one clue they
are no nearer Fogarty than when they
started.
A detective said yesterday. jokingly,
that Fogarty was then out in Laurel
Grove cemetery, hiding III the grass.
That is ab0ut the only spot 10 that section
which has not been searched. Some of
the police have strongly believed that the
young man was in Robertsville, but he
cannot be found there. Nearly every boy
with red bead has found himself shad-
owed at different times during the past
week, and ore youth was actually ar
rested. He succeeded in proving by his
father that his name was not Fogarty and
was released.
Many think that when Mr.. Kieffer re-
covers aud the present grand jury ad-
journs that Fogarty's friends will per-
suade him to give himself up and take
bis chances on a trial. some OF the
searchers nave stopped looking for him
as they do not think that he would have
remained in the city so long, supposin <
he had not left the frat daY or two. II
would he difficult 10 conceal him here
very long without parties learning it or
suspecting it, they argue.

HIS NECK IN A MOOSE.
A PRISONER ATTt MPrs SUICIDE
AT THE JAIL.

Edward billiard, the Negro Forger,
Makes n Rope of his Blanket and Tries
to Hang Himself In his Ceil--The Act
Believed to be Part of an Insanity
Dodge.
Edward billiard, the coored forger, at
tempted to commit suicide In his cell In
the county Jail yesterday morning. He
has been playing the insanity dodge ever
since he was arrested, three weeks ago,
and bis attempt at self-destruction is be-
lieyed to have been Intended by billiard to
impress the iailers that he ia really In
sane.
Yesterday was the day assigned
for his trial, fact which be certainly re-
mem 6ered. When one OF the guards at
the Jail was serving breakfast 70 the
prisoners, about $50 O'Clock in the morn
ing, ne discovered billiards. body sus-
pended from the top of the door by rope
made OF a BLANKET. The guard gave au
alarm and hastened to cut the swinging
body down. Life was not extinct by
good deal, but billiard acted as though be
was nearly dead. He was laid down on
the cell floor, but he did not move fea-
ture or limb until given hot drink.
That started him up, and he Immediately
recommended MS crazy actions.
TIE INSANITY DODGE.
The jail authorities believe that he has
been playing off all along, and they do
not think that he really wanted TO hang
himself. II he had been iu earnest he
would have waited until there was no
danger of being prevented. Instead he
arranged the suspension so that he would
be caught in plenty of time. He mad
torn up his blanket in strips and fastened
it 10 the topof his cell door. He then got
on his cot and jumped off kicking the cot
over. The drop WAS not far enough for
him to swing clear Of the floor, and be had
TO draw his legs up, which was q safe
method of attempting suicide. billiard
no doubt selected 1t for that very reason,
knowing that If he did not like tue sensa-
ton Of hanging he could lower bis feet
and avoid fatal termination,
CARRIED IN A WAGON.
Later in the morning billiard was taken
in a wagon TO the court house tor trial.
When he was placed IN the grand jury
room along with some other prisoners
who were brought out for trial he was
suddenly seized with another attack OF in
sanity and began jabbering. A slab Of
ice had been put down bis back before
leaving jail, but he never murmured until
after be got to the court house. Some OF
Jne prisoners SuNeu MIN Wnlle lOchSu III
the jury room. He picked up chair and
with maniaeal oath drove all the
prisoners up III corner, where
they huddled together.
NOT VERY WELL LIKED.
He did not strike, and thereafter
his fellow prisoners let him alone
and Kept the long table be-
tween themselves and him. Whether be
was really crazy or not, they concluded
be would not do to trifle with. Solicitor
General duBignon desired to 20 on with
billiards. trial, but MIR. Osborne, the pris-
oner's counsel, objected, and fled plea
OF insanity. The counsel agreed that an
examination should be held to ascertain
whether billiard is in fact insane. and
Judge Adams appointed Drs. William
Duncan, j. B. Read and George II. Stone
10 make the examination.
